We caught Jon Lander on the balcony on a sunny day just after Fanfest and got him to tell us a little bit about what's in store for EVE in 2012.

Check it out!

IAC :(

Really looking forward to both of the patches, should make life interesting and generate lots of angst.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

In terms of actual features it was mostly a recap of things discussed at Fanfest but in a shorter format, intended as a warm up for more detailed coverage of specific features in the coming weeks ;)

Also just to give you a chance to listen to his dreamy accent.

Hey cool vid and your presentation at fanfest was great.

Thanks for not offering us $1000 jeans and instead, focusing on ships.

Dual Pane idea: Click!

CCP Please Implement

As a Brit, I have to say, that's probably true. See modern street speak, especially London (not of the Cockney kind).

Still, informative video! I think Jon Lander needs a bobble hat though. Or a Ushanka.

Starting at 3:12 in the video:

Tons of new modules... ...it's going to make big difference how people fit their ships...


I wonder what kind of new modules they're going to add and what resources will be used to manufacture them. Was any info about these new modules mentioned in the Fanfest?

We will go into details in upcoming dev blogs. Some of this stuff I'm not too certain about yet even...so I'm excited too :)

I watched all of the FanFest videos. Most of it sounded pretty good except for the reference made about Data Cores:

CCP said they were looking into increasing the amount of Research Point's needed for civilians to redeem Data Cores and maybe even have a small ISK fee included with the redemption.

As a civilian I have a very big problem with that considering there was a lot of time spent training up skills and building up standings to access high level R&D Agents. As such, I don't think there should be any change done to the civilian cost and I'm certain a lot of other civilians would also agree with that.

FYI - Data Cores from R&D Agents are not a big ISK printing press. The amount of ISK gained from them in market is a low return when compared to the amount of time it takes to acquire a sizable amount of Data Cores. This is not something that enables players to get rich quick. R&D Agents and the Data Core system is not an ATM machine. Thinking otherwise is incorrect.

CCP said they are looking to increase rewards for Factional Warfare players. One option is by adding Data Cores to the FW LP Store at a reduced rate compared to the civilian cost. Right now the cost of items in the FW LP Store is roughly about 60% of the regular LP Store cost. According to the revamp options for the FW LP system, Militia members will be able to purchase those Data Cores at an extremely low price.

I don't see a problem with FW LP Stores selling Data Cores at a reduced rate compared to the civilian cost. However, I think the Data Cores sold in FW LP stores should also require the appropriate Science skills for redemption. If not, I imagine there will be some rage threads posted about that.

Pretty much anyone speaks English, in a more understandable way, nothing wrong with how they write it. (Im looking at you America)
